Vegan Wholesome Chocolate Spread (Nutella)

This Vegan Wholesome Chocolate Spread (Nutella) is full of creaminess from the roasted hazelnuts, sweet notes from the dates, and flavour from the raw chocolate powder.

Prep Time10 minutes mins

Course: Dessert, Dip, Snack, Spread, Sweet Treat

Servings: 1 jar

Author: Luna Linnemann

Ingredients

• 15 juicy dates
• ½ cup roasted hazelnut butter *
• ⅓ c raw cacao powder
• 3 tbsp plant based milk (or more)

Instructions

• Pit the dates.
• Add all ingredients to food processor or a high speed blender and blend until smooth. You can add more plant based milk for a more runny spread.
• Keep in the fridge and enjoy within three weeks.

Notes

* If you don’t have or can’t find roasted hazelnut butter, it’s super easy to make yourself. Simply roast the hazelnuts on a baking tray in the oven at 150°C/300°F for about 10-15 minutes. Once the nuts have cooled, rub the skin of the nuts with your hands or by placing them in a kitchen towel and rubbing them in here (some will keep their skin and this is fine). Then add to a food processor or a high speed blender and blend until a smooth butter forms. You may need to scrape down the sides once in a while.
